Rosebud's AI feels very refined compared to other apps I've tried out. The "go deeper" function is great when trying to find the words to express yourself to your support group or to just vent. I like the recommended journaling parts as it gives you a good place to start if you're not really a journaling type. I also like the personalized goals. The premium is expensive, but I find it worth the price!

I haven't been using it for too long, but I've seen improvement in my writing and/or journaling skills! I've also seen some positive impacts on my overall mental health. It's easy to navigate even with multiple sections, and there are no ads—even on the free version! I like the affirmations, insights, weekly and daily recaps, suggestions/tips, the option to dive deeper into your entry, and the streak tracker. Besides AI not recognizing previously discussed topics, I love it! ❤️

I use the free version and it was amazing. The limited deeper responses were a setback for me personally so I invested in the premium app for 13 a month which, in my opinion, is cheaper than therapy, HOWEVER I do NOT recommend in REPLACE of therapy but more like a tool to use with it. STILL SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP! 🙏 the free tools are good, you still have access to different features which allow you to dive deeper into different situations such as relationships, family, & lifestyle. great app!
